Historic moment – Nancy Pelosi is the first female speaker of the House. My only hope is that she understands we’re in war with people who want her in a burka.

Update – “House Bans Lobbyist Gifts, Business-Sponsored Travel”: “The U.S. House of Representatives, after installing its new Democratic leadership, voted to ban lawmakers from flying on corporate jets and accepting gifts and meals from lobbyists.” The vote was 430-1 and, for the record, I always love it when there’s one guy (or gal) who stands against the tide. Except for that Jeannette Rankin.
